This unique material keeps the top and bottom deck from buckling while preserving the flex characteristics.

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2020 Core Ripper 3 Kite Surfboard at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>To all the wave warriors out there, we agree, there is no bigger rush than riding waves of all shapes and sizes. Strapped. Or strapless. Like the ones a Nor'easterly brings to the East Coast. Or a good low brings to the Great Lakes. For you, we built the ultra comfortable, Ripper 3. An allrounder that feels right at home on big, messy, wind driven lake swell or the super smooth reefs of Mauritius and Maui. The Ripper 3. A handcrafted, glass shortboard for all your road trips, wherever they may take you.</p> <p>So, what is the payoff for going with glass over EPS? You get a classic, smooth riding surfboard with impeccable carving characteristics that performs just as well without a kite. Can’t find any waves? No problem, try the new Ripper 3 with a CORE LW kite and discover how much fun lightwind riding is. Go back to the future with the carbon fiber and glass Ripper 3 and find your inner wave ninja. </p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <ul> <li><strong>Active Foam Core: </strong>Closed cell PU or polyurethane foam blanks are the only choice for custom board builders. PU is water resistant and can be precisely shaped with CNC milling machines and sanders. Our blanks have superior flex memory and dimensional accuracy with our multi-step CNC milling and sanding process. And together with its twin wood stringers, the Active Foam Core creates a better foil and rail shape for butter-smooth turns.</li> <li><strong>Classic Glass Coat: </strong>Multi-layered, specialized fiberglass, and hi-tech resin form the top coat. Kelly Slater, Mick Fanning, and Carissa Moore still compete on glass boards. They prefer the softer riding, more flexible, glass boards over stiff and lifeless EPS. Trust glass for precisely tuned rails, original surf feel, and of course, good looks. </li> <li><strong>Shortboard Outline: </strong>The board’s pronounced rocker, 26+/- liter volume, and classic shortboard shape works equally well in chaotic wind-driven waves or butter smooth reef waves. The new Ripper 3 gets a boost in speed and control with its somewhat narrower and more parallel cut.</li> <li><strong>Round Tail: </strong>The Ripper 3 moves from a square tail to a round tail. With a little more volume to slash knee highs and superb control on monsters, it's the best choice for allrounders. The new board also features more tail kick than its predecessor. Spoil yourself with never-ending, super-tight gybes on the new Ripper 3.</li> <li><strong>Tucked Under Rails: </strong>The hand shaped rails feature a new thinner, sharper, “tucked under” rail design that releases water better yet maintains the classic smooth and forgiving ride you’d expect from a glass board. The central 60/40 tucked under rail transitions seamlessly into a hard tail rail to provide greater maneuverability.</li> <li><strong>Strap Ready: </strong>The deck is fitted with multiple stainless steel V4A inserts to receive optional Core straps in your favorite stance position.</li> <li><strong>Double Stringer: </strong>A laminated wood stringer is inlaid along the full length of the board to longitudinally manage flex and give the Ripper 3 its signature feel. A second visible wood stringer is inlaid horizontally also along the length of the board to accept strap inserts. The stringer is then laminated to the fiberglass producing a very durable deck</li> <li><strong>Blunt Nose: </strong>The Ripper 3 loses a bit more of its nose. We file it off because, in the long run, our trademark blunt nose is safer, more durable, and just plain cool. The Ripper 3 fits in board bags better, travels better and, hopefully, won’t leave a mark. </li> <li><strong>Thruster Fin Setup: </strong>The Ripper 3 continues with the classic three fin thruster setup for a looser feel. Thrusters are well known to turn tighter than quads and release easier for cleaner moves off the lip.</li> <li><strong>Orginal FCS II Fin Setup: </strong>Core carries over the Original FCS II fin box system on the Ripper 3. FCS II is the keyless fin system that enables 2-second fin changes without tools. It’s wise to stick with the global standard in fin boxes for the day you lose a fin on your favorite reef. Because it’s backward compatible (in that it still retains grub screws to secure any old FCS fin you or your friends may have), you will be back on the water in no time. Now that’s progress. </li> </ul>
<h2>Take a look at the new 2018 Core Green Room Kite Surfboard at S2AS!</h2> <p>The beauty and allure of big wave riding is undeniable. Some of us will drop everything and drive hours in the hope of catching a really big day. And if you don’t live in Mauritius, Oahu, or Nazare, these days don’t come often enough. But when they do, you’d like to be prepared because you’ve experienced the washing machine and it's not fun. </p> <p>Core built the brand new Green Room for you, a big wave hunter. We know this may sound like an F-16 ad, but they can’t help it. This stick is fast. Like F-16 fast. Staying ahead of the wave is no big deal for the Green Room. It changes direction like it’s fitted with the latest “fly by wire” systems. And it feels so in control on every bottom turn due in part to the Pipeline, Supertubos, and Mavericks DNA Core added. Hype [off].</p> <p>What is the Green Room’s secret sauce? Glad you asked. Polyurethane foam and glass construction allow us to precisely fine tune the rails, foil, and rocker for exceptional speed and agility on steep wave faces. The board differs from Core's allrounder Ripper 3 in that it is noticeably narrower in width and lower in volume (-15%). It also features a rounded pin tail design that has less lift. These modifications contribute to its ability to grab hold of the wave for crazy control. A word of caution, though, this stick is not for everyone. It takes serious skill to ride this little gem. And so they named it for its ability to take exceptional riders to the holy grail of surfing - the Green Room.</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Active Foam Core: </strong>Closed cell PU or polyurethane foam blanks are custom board builder’s only choice.

The Green Room’s round pin tail rides deeper and has a longer, straighter rail that improves control at speed. Pronounced tail kick promotes carving control and reduces pearling.</p> <p><strong>Big Wave Outline: </strong>With less volume and width, the Green Room is a handful to ride but the payoff is worth the effort. It tames big waves with confidence inspiring high speed (toeside) bottom turns, excellent acceleration, and grip on the wavefront.</p> <p><strong>3D Hull: </strong>The board features a light, single concave hull that transitions into a Vee towards the tail. It’s the perfect prescription for tight, controlled bottom turns on big, scary waves. And, of course, hugging the sidewall when entering the green room!</p> <p><strong>Tucked Under Rails: </strong>The hand shaped rails feature a sharp, “tucked under” rail design that releases water better yet maintains the classic smooth and forgiving ride you’d expect from a glass board. The central 60/40 tucked under rail transitions seamlessly into a hard tail rail to provide greater maneuverability.</p> <p><strong>Strap Ready: </strong>The deck is fitted with stainless steel V4A inserts to receive optional Core straps in two stance positions.</p> <p><strong>Double Stringer: </strong>A laminated wood stringer is inlaid along the full length of the board to longitudinally manage flex and give the Green Room its classic feel.

<p>Building on the its reputation as the go-to surfboard for riders demanding solid performance in a variety of wind and wave conditions, the Tyrant is again one of the best all-around surfboards on the market. While maintaining its classic short board shape and a rocker designed for high-performance down-the-line riding, Slingshot’s legendary design team has modified the board’s tail end, changing it from a thumb tail to a rounded squash tail and repositioning the stomp pad and inserts farther back over the fins. These changes allow for an aggressive, lip-slashing style while maintaining the stability and hold that has made the Tyrant an ideal classic shortboard choice for riders of all levels.<br /> <br /> Back by popular demand for all of Slingshot’s surfboards is the three-fin setup, incorporating the innovative new FCSII keyless fin system that enables riders to insert and remove fins with ease, and without the need for tools. The Tyrant also comes with a set of Slingshot’s quick-adjust surf straps.</p> <p><img src="http://www.slingshotsports.com/c.429740/site/SlingshotSite/img/2016_Tyrant_Specs.png" style="height:auto; width:950px" /></p>
